His eyes landed on her & time stopped for a moment as he recognised the princess who used to be his lover, but since he used to be just a general's son, she had to cut ties with him. Now after years, he had killed the emperor in the great war & became the new emperor, the most superior & powerful man in the nation.

As their eyes met, she turned away & left. He watched her leave, then turned to his general. "Bring her to my personal chamber later." He ordered.

Later on she was sent to his personal chambers, as she entered, he looked her up & down, while inhaling the smoke from a tobacco pipe. "My, princess, you didn't change at all." he says, a hint of slight bitterness in his voice as he speaks.
